About Esme

Meet Esme. Esme is a charming 5-year-old, 43 lb blue-nosed pit and beagle mix, full of love and energy. This incredibly affectionate girl loves being close to her humans and truly embodies the idea of a Velcro dog. Whether you’re relaxing at home or off on an adventure, she’s happiest when she’s right by your side. Esme is housebroken and deeply loyal. She has an adventurous spirit, exploring new sights and smells with curiosity. A good run in the yard is one of her favorite pastimes. Given her strong bond with her people, she thrives in a home where someone is around most of the time. Extended periods alone can be tough on her, so it’s ideal if you work from home or are home often. Esme came to the rescue after her previous owner could no longer provide her with the attention she needs due to life changes. Now, she’s ready for a fresh start in a loving environment. She gets along well with kids, cats, and most dogs, making her a great addition to a family. Because of her intelligent and energetic nature, she benefits from structure and positive reinforcement. Once, she did manage to hop over a fence when left alone outside, so she’ll do well in a secure yard with supervision. Esme is not just a pet—she’s a best friend waiting for you to open your heart. We are searching for a foster or adopting home for this special girl. Ready to meet her? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
